I've recently received a shipment of knives because I wanted some stag in my slipjoint collection. Here they are (Kissing Crane, Bulldog, Schatt & Morgan and Norrthfield):

My favorites are the executive whittler (which has been a regular visitor in my pocket and looks much less new now), and the Kissing Crane (I thought that they would be around the same size- surprise):

I forgot to post it when they came in, but have grown to appreciate them more as they get some use.
 
That Executive Whittler has been calling my name for a minute now. Is that S&M Harness Jack? That's been high on my list, as well. Have also looked at that Bulldog whittler, too.

Good taste!
 
I love that S&M Harness Jack. If memory serves they only made 79....Enjoy:)
 
I was a bit underwhelmed with the punch, but that was because I thought it was an awl and thought that it would be tougher. I bent it on the first hole I tried to bore, but I think if I take it back a bit it will be strong enough for me. I never knew it was suck a reduced number made, but it does fill the need for a punch on a multi blade- I just can't seem to carry a slip joint for long if it is a smaller single blade. I did come across a 1974 Case Sodbuster that may help change that though.

The executive whittler is great, hides very well in my pocket and gets very sharp, plus I love wharncliffs. The only issue I have had thus far is the shield worked itself loose somehow, but I put some crazyglue in there and it has not moved yet.

The sad thing is that I don't have any slipjoints on my to buy list now!!
